REMINDER: Your Antivirus Program is About to Expire

This is a friendly reminder from Gakidoo’s Computer Repair to renew your ESET Nod32 Antivirus. Yes it has been about a year already! To ensure continued protection, please renew now!

To verify that you are eligible for renewal pricing for your ESET security product, use the following checklist:

  • You can renew your ESET security product license up to 90 days before your license expires (the unused time will roll-over), or up to 60 days after your license expires.
  • If it has been more than 60 days since your license expired, you are not eligible for renewal pricing, but you can purchase a new license through the ESET online store. If you need help checking your expiration date, click here.
  • The email address you use to validate your renewal license must match the email address you used in the original order or activation. If we installed your ESET product for you and you do not know what email address we used in the original order or activation, contact:
